Marcus Skinner
Clinical Director, Surgical and Perioperative Services
"When Perinatal Child and Youth were exploring options to assist with the review of the policy, Emerson Health were recommended and subsequently selected based on their relevant experience, adherence to timeframes, quality of work and demonstrated understanding of the requirements, and I can honestly say that they have excelled in all areas.
In addition to this the team have been an absolute pleasure to work with balancing a calm and reassuring approach especially at times of frustration; with quality of work; a wonderful way of engaging respectfully and genuinely with a wide range of stakeholders; and a healthy dose of humour along the way.
Perinatal Child and Youth would certainly recommend Emerson Health to any organisation who truly care about making a difference to the people who work for them and the clients they serve."

"Primary Health Tasmania engaged Emerson Health to develop Clinical Governance Upskilling Training for our commissioned providers. We recognise that clinical governance is vital to ensure the delivery of safe, high-quality, and patient-centred care. Throughout the project, the team at Emerson Health communicated clearly and regularly. Project deliverables were on time, and potential delays were flagged as early as possible. The application of subject matter expertise was evident, and Emerson fostered an environment, in both external consultations and internal project meetings, that encouraged robust conversations and provided assurance of clear project direction. We eagerly look forward to the transformative impact this will have for our commissioned providers."
